Here are some helpful tips for maximum satisfaction during your upcoming Crystal Springs Resort golf getaway at some of the top golf courses in the US.

Helpful Tips for Your Crystal Springs Golf Getaway

Staying Fresh on the Course

While the Garden State usually only tops out in the low-80s during the summer months, it’s never a bad idea to prepare for a heat wave—just in case. Remember to apply sunscreen, even if it’s 83 degrees and sunny. Always drink plenty of water. Bring a frozen bottle of water for a refreshing drink later in the round. Wear a hat, light colors, and proper breathable golf attire. Investing in “moisture wicking” shirts and golf-pants will not only keep you fresh, but it will also improve your score by a couple of strokes.

Try All Six Courses

The best tip we can ever give our guests is to try all six courses. Ballyowen, the #1 rated golf course in New Jersey and one of the top golf courses in the US, is best known for its links-style design. Ballyowen rests on acres of rolling farmland and has a distinct Celtic atmosphere. The aptly-named Black Bear is arguably our best option for recreational golfers looking for a course that matches their skill level. Cascades, a nine-hole gem, is our newest course. It offers breathtaking mountain vistas and is exceptionally beautiful in autumn. Crystal Springs, one of the country’s toughest golf courses, is home to one of the most enchantingly deceptive holes (#11) on the East Coast. A youth golfing paradise, Mineralsis only 2,305 yards in length. Minerals rests on the base of Hamburg Mountain is one of the top 10 short courses in the U.S. Wild Turkey is a perfect amalgam of treeless expanses, multi-elevated golf shots, and tranquil forestry and ponds.
